In Acts 1, we read about the 40 days Christ ministered to the apostles after His death and resurrection. During this time, He taught them what to do after He ascended into heaven.

We find examples of service scattered throughout the scriptures, including in this week’s “Come, Follow Me” reading in John 13. Here, we read about Christ washing the feet of His disciples. Such a task was not expected of Him, but in doing so, Jesus again exhibited Himself as a humble leader. Characteristic of His ministry
In this week’s “Come, Follow Me” reading, we find the story of the widow’s mite in Luke 21:1-4. Jesus sees a woman casting two mites into the temple treasury. While other people are throwing in more, Christ tells the apostles “that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all” (Luke 21:3) because she
